Cuisinart 722-24NS Chef's Classic Nonstick Stainless 10-Inch Open Skillet


Great skillet!, (What's this?) Cuisinart Chef's Classic Nonstick Stainless 10-inch Open Skillet
This is a great non-stick skillet. Very balanced, good weight. Performs well. Very happy with my choice.
No Non-stick, (What's this?) I was excited when opening the box and seeing a really good-looking pan. Washed it with warm water and soap before first use. The first use was a charm. It performed just as published. Hand washed and towel dried separately. About the third use started to notice a decrease in performance. Now it doesn't seem to perform any better than cheaper brands. Also, there is an annoying clicking as it is heated. I am assuming it is the sandwiched metal expanding and contracting. I would rate heat conductivity as good.
Love this pan..., (What's this?)
Wedding Gift, (What's this?) This item arrived timely. It seemed to be a good weight and easily handled. I bought this for a wedding gift. The bride and groom were pleased.
Great Nonstick Skillet, (What's this?) This pan looks great, cooks everything well, and is super easy to clean in the dishwasher.
Don't play Cuisinart's manipulative little games!, (What's this?) This is a decent enough non-stick frying pan, but it's also been a quite annoying.

I'd decided there's no such thing as a durable non-stick pan, & so chose this medium quality, medium price one. I had lots of 10" lids lying around, so didn't buy one at the time. I dicovered, however, that this 10" frying pan is really a 9&1/2" frying pan & none of my lids would fit. Cuisinart puts a 1/4" flange around the lip of the pan, saves a little in materials costs, and makes a little extra profit on each one sold. I guess it must add up.

So I came back to Amazon to purchase a lid, only to discover that Cuisinart only sells lids in pairs of two! What's the thinking here? Again, they make some extra money on the deal. I wound up purchasing a Faberware 10" lid (ASIN: B00006IFQS) that the Amazon reviews helpfully mentioned was a little small.
NOT WORTH THE MONEY, We purchased one of these pans about 3 years ago. Cuisinart claimed you could use metal unensils with it so we did. After about a year the coating was badly scratched and food was sticking to it. We decided it was our fault and purchased another one.

This time we never used metal with it and were very careful not to scratch it with anything. It lasted almost two years but now food is sticking to this one. No amount of cleaning helps either. The skillet still looks great but it is useless now. I've tried to contact customer service but they're not responding. Apparently their "lifetime warranty" is worthless.
Worth the money, (What's this?) This skillet is just as expected. It is great for cooking anything from eggs to meat. Clean up is a breeze.
Poorly balanced and not flat, (What's this?) I was very excited to get this... so maybe I'm more disappointed than I should be for the price. This is a heavy pan with a nice thick non stick coating... but I don't actually use the pan because the balance is off. It tips far more than my super cheap lighter weight pan. Maybe it would be better on a grill on a gas stove but if you've got an already tippy electric stove this is *not* the right pan.
Perfect for a couple eggs, (What's this?) I bought this pan almost exclusively to make fried eggs. My other pans are all stainless steel and it's just too much of a hassle to cook an egg on them. The 8" is the perfect size for two eggs, and the nonstick surface works very well.
